Celebrating Growth and New Beginnings

This week, the 2025-26 entrepreneurs completed their post-intervention, follow-up Greenlight surveys. This self-reflection process is a powerful tool that reveals personal and business wins and triumphs, which are a cause for celebration as Red and Yellow dots become Green dots. This also shows the value and impact of the Mentorship Programme, which is designed to boost and build resourceful and resilient entrepreneurs with successful small and informal businesses.

Meet our new Green Futures Hospitality Skills class of 2026, who completed their first full week of training. Back row from left: Robin, Anovuyo, Vatiswa, Yonela, Lona, Onesipho and Robyn.Front row from left: Anesipho, Amahle, Gaillyn, Takatso, Lilitha. Look at their smiles.
